Nora and Ren were the least shocked about Tia's sudden growth. Actually, Nora was indifferent, since she never saw any reason to treat her niece differently, and Ren just decided to not dwell on the crazy. Yang and Blake were silently, the former because the later threatened her with compromising pictures if she made any kind of joke about Tia's recently acquired 'fun bags'. The Faunus girl didn't want to get in the bad side of Jaune, or worse, Pyrrha. Meanwhile, Ruby and Weiss were facing their own demons.

"Is it the meat? Maybe meat works better than milk? Or the fish? Yang and Blake said something about them and fish…" Ruby murmured to herself.

"You're not flat, you're slim, and there's nothing wrong with being slim. There's other qualities aside those…" Weiss repeated it as a mantra.

Meanwhile, Jaune and Pyrrha were too busy staring menacingly as every student apparently took a renewed interest in their little girl. Thankfully Nora's skirts fit perfectly, so there was no chance of Tia showing much down there. Unfortunately, no one had a fitting bra for the dragonet, and due to her wings she couldn't wear someone's else top, so…

"Ugh, it's tight on the chest…" Tia complained.

"We'll ask your aunt Glynda for a new set, honey, then we will go to town to buy you some new clothes and…" Jaune couldn't say it.

"A bra, Jaune. A bra." Yang said with a smirk, loving to see the loving dad cringing.

"Why I need one?" Tia asked, moving back, the tight uniform being a bit unsafe for her.

"Because that will make you feel more comfy during the day. We all know how they can bother you after a long day… well, most of us do." Yang said as she grimaced at Weiss and Ruby, getting a scoff from the first and a raspberry from the later.

The group got their usual breakfast… Except Weiss and Ruby that took more meat products than usual… and two extra cartoons of milk. Ruby complained about the lack of fish on breakfast, something, for some reason, Ren and Blake agreed. The breakfast was going as normal as usual until they started discussing their plans for the day.

"Hey, Dr. Oobleck's class is cancelled. I wonder what happened." Ruby commented as she checked her scroll.

…

"This is unreasonable, Glynda!" Oobleck complained as he was locked in beacon's dungeons. Don't ask why the school had one.

"I warned you several times to keep away of my niece, Bart. This is more for your own good than hers." Glynda answered calmly.

"Come on, I learned my lesson, let me go!" Glynda showed a book to him, a copy of the Encyclopedia Remnantica.

"Do you swear over this book in the name of Science that you will leave Tia Arc Nikos alone?" Oobleck stared at the book and started sweating.

"YOU DEVIL! I CAN'T!"

"So you are in extended leave until you grew some reason, Bart." Glynda stated as she left him in the dungeon.

…

"So, no class at all today? Yes!" Yang celebrated, and Nora started making plans with Ren.

"Maybe we could just spend the day here, as a family?" Pyrrha suggested with a smile.

"Awww, I want to go to the city!" Tia asked as she ate a sausage, using her tail as a fork.

"We do need to buy her clothes." Jaune added, but Pyrrha was worried something could happens in the city, especially after the 'shrubbery' thing. Until…

"What happened to the loli? I want the loli back!" A student voice was heard in the background.

"Nora, would you kindly?" Jaune asked, and the girl left the table with a big smile. "So, I think we could spend the morning at the city? Maybe we could even have lunch there."

"Let's go mommy! It would be a family date!" Tia cheered on, and that was enough for the Spartan to agree.

"MY LEGS!"

"And how about the afternoon?" Weiss asked, ignoring the painful screaming on the background.

"How about we home school her a little? It's a lovely day and I think we could do it outside." Blake suggested, and they all agreed, including Nora as she returned from her successful mission.

"So, that's a plan. Pyrrha, Tia and I'll go get some new clothes for her, including change the costume we bought her. Then after we come back we will put some knowledge in that beautiful little head." He commented and Tia gave a toothy smile back.

…

"And that's why I hate lingerie shopping…" A blushing Jaune said as he carried the bags. Tia was still a little too eager to show her underwear, and this time she even showed Pyrrha in just a tiny pair of panties and lacy bra when they were in the changing room to the boy, and he almost fainted. "She's like my sisters, except she don't do it on purpose."

"So, it's not like you saw anything new…" Pyrrha muttered, glad to see he still saw her as a woman, yet a little red herself over the events.

"Well… I didn't expect you to have a cute mole there…" he muttered, and she blushed madly because she knew what mole he was talking about.

"Jaune!"

"Sorry! But my eyes just drifted there!" He affirmed, and Pyrrha pretended to be angry at him, but actually she was happy he found her attractive.

"Mommy, what's that?" Tia asked as she pointed at an ice-cream van.

"Oh, ice-cream. It's a frozen dessert." Pyrrha explained, ignoring Jaune. The boy just groaned while the champion had a mischievous smile.

"Can I try it?"

"Well, we still have a few hours till lunch… Sure, here some lien. Ask for two balls, I recommend the chocolate with coconut flavor myself." Pyrrha gave her daughter the lien and saw her off, then turning to Jaune. "So, Mr. Arc, let's talk about how much you saw of me."

While Jaune had to deal with Pyrrha's determination to tease him, the dragonet approached the van and noticed a petit girl with multicolored hair pouting at the server. She kept pointing to her hair and making a 'two' sign at the man, who just shook his head.

"Hi, mister. Can I have two balls of chocolate with coconut?" Tia asked, and after the initial surprise over her looks the man gave her a cone with the frozen treat. She gave him the lien and used her tail to hold the cone, and noticed the other girl staring at her with envy. "Do you want ice-cream too?" Tia asked and the girl nodded.

"I think she can't talk. I'm trying to get what she wants but she just point to her hair." The man apologized.

"Maybe she's trying to tell you the flavor she wants?" The girl pointed at Tia with a 'she got it!' look on her eyes. Then she pointed at her hair. "Three colors? Three flavors?" once again the girl pointed at Tia. "Three flavors?" She nodded enthusiastically. "Do you want three flavors or an ice-cream with three-flavors?" Pointing after the second option. "Do you have three-flavored ice-cream, mister?"

"Well, I do have classics like Neapolitan…" The girl almost jumped and enthusiastically pointed at the man. "Neapolitan ice-cream? Two balls?" The girl nodded enthusiastically. "Ah, I got it now, sorry it took me so long. Here." He quickly gave her cone, and the girl happily licked it.

"Oh, it's that good?" Tia proved her, and smiled big. "I found heaven in cold sweet form…" The other girl silently giggled, then offered her own ice-cream towards Tia. The dragonet licked it with her long dragon tongue and smiled, offering hers with her tail to the girl, and she licked it too, and both giggled at each other.

"Made a new friend, honey?" Pyrrha asked as she approached, followed by a blushing Jaune. The champion herself had a victorious smile, likely because she got a promise from the boy.

"Oh, I helped her get her order. I think she doesn't talk." The girl gave a confirmation nod as she licked her own ice-cream.

"That was nice of you, honey." Pyrrha praised her daughter, and the dragonet even blushed a little.

"Oh yeah, what's your name?" Tia asked, and the girl pointed at her ice-cream. "Ice-cream? Like auntie Weiss?" Somewhere else Yang felt a surge of pride and a small tear formed in her eye. The girl shook her head and pointed at the ice-cream again, puzzling Tia.

"Neapolitan?" Jaune guessed, and the girl made an 'almost sign´, then a 'cut' sign. "Part of it?" She nodded, and them mouthed an 'o'. "Ending in 'o'… Neo?" The girl jumped in happiness and made a small curtsy. "Nice to meet you, Neo. I'm Jaune, this is my daughter Tia and my partner Pyrrha." Neo eyed Pyrrha, and then something clicked. She started pointing at the champion and at a big outdoor sign where the Spartan face was splattered, promoting some type of diet product. Her shocked stare made clear to the redhead what she meant.

"Yes, I'm that Pyrrha Nikos. Nice to meet you Neo." Neo made another curtsy, but stared between the three of them, and Pyrrha laughed a little understanding her confusion. "Yeah, we are an odd family."

"Auntie Nora says odd is the best kind." Tia commented, and the older teens laughed a little because of course she would.

"Now, how about we hit the costume shop to change your costume for the Festival?" Jaune said, and Tia nodded, then neo started gesturing towards them and herself. "Do you want to tag along?" she nodded. "Eh, why not? My mom always says strangers are just friends we didn't meet yet."

"Unless they drive windowless vans. Then you should kick their nuts." Tia said and Neo laughed silently at her attitude.

…

Exchanging Tia's costume was easy enough. But now the dragonet was hell bent in convincing Neo to get a costume too. Jaune and Pyrrha just sat in the store as they smiled seeing their little girl playing around with a new friend.

"Now I know why mom and dad wanted so many kids." Jaune commented with Pyrrha.

"There's really something heartwarming seeing your child growing up and being so happy." The redhead agreed, and then she thought about the fact Jaune was supposed to marry soon. "I hope you find a wife that wants to have as many children as you…"

"Finding a wife?" He questioned, having completely forgot about it. "Oh god, the Festival and that stupid law! I know it's to avoid Tia being possessed and saving the world and all that, but I don't want to force Ms. Goodwitch into marriage. I mean, I'm lucky they chose such fine woman…" Pyrrha almost punched him in the face as he praised their teacher. "…but I want to marry someone more… how can I put it… someone more like you?"

Pyrrha almost fainted at his words. Did he mean he wanted to marry her? Like when she told him, indirectly, she wanted to be at the dance with him a few months ago? Because if he did, she would say yes. She was taken out of her thoughts when she felt his hand wrapping on hers, his blue eyes on her green ones, and she blushed and her heart forgot how to beat properly.

"Mommy, daddy! Look!" They both turned to see Tia approaching with Neo, the girl clad in a black Zorro costume, striking a pose with a fake sword. "She said she want to go to the Festival! Well, she didn't said it… she mostly signaled it."

"The Festival is open to everyone, so she can go if she wants too. You know, you should invite Penny too. It would be nice to see all your friends there." Jaune answered, and the two girls nodded happily.

"Yay! Thanks, daddy. I'll let you continue to flirt with mommy. I think she really wants a kiss." Tia said as she dragged Neo away. The two teens stared at each other and blushed, realizing they were holding hands. But neither of them motioned to let it go.

"Yang really is being a bad influence…" Jaune commented, and Pyrrha just nodded. "I'm glad her mother is an awesome girl."

"Oh, is she?" Pyrrha asked with a smirk.

"Yep." Jaune answered, and then both started laughing. Pyrrha decided to question about the marriage later.

…

"Bye Neo, I hope to see you at the festival…" The Tia whispered at the multicolored girl's ears. "We are trying to make my parents marry by them, so I hope you help us with this." Neo nodded and smiled evilly, and Tia smiled back. "Bye!"

Tia flew back to her parents and Neo smiled. She had fun that day, and hoped Roman could stay in jail a little longer. Well, actually she was kind wanting him to rot there and let her have her fun, but someone needed to pay the bills and certainly it wouldn't be her.

Meanwhile the trio returned to Beacon (with Jaune and Tia paying the trash cans in the airship a visit) but thankfully it wasn't as bad this time. Soon they reunited with their friends, and decided to start the lessons for the dragonet. They were sitting in a tree, and while Pyrrha tutored Jaune, Blake had her niece on her lap and was teaching History to the dragonet. After an hour or so Glynda joined them.

"Auntie Glyn!" The dragonet jumped on her as soon as she saw the blonde teacher, and the older woman smiled and petted her niece.

"Glad to see you all dedicating yourselves in studying. At least, it's way better than you all causing ME trouble." She eyed the eight teens and they all gave awkward chuckles.

"Are you going to play with us, auntie Glyn?" Tia asked with her big round eyes.

"Actually, I have a present for you, dear. While stimulating you intellectually certainly is needed, I believe the same can be said about your artistic side. So I wanted to give you this." Glynda gave the dragonet a big sketch book and a fancy collection of coloring pencils in a steel case. Tia's eyes sparkled and she hugged her aunt and gave her a big kiss on the cheek. After that she sat with Pyrrha and started coloring right away. "Mr. Arc, do you mind if we have a word? Since all of this started, we didn't have a chance to talk about our… predicament."

"S-sure. Ms. Goodwitch…" Jaune agreed and stood up.

"Do you want me to go with you?" Pyrrha asked, and Jaune shook his head.

"It's alright. You stay here with our daughter." Jaune said, and Pyrrha smiled shyly over the way he spoke 'our daughter'. With that he left with Ms. Goodwitch.

…

Jaune always got nervous in Ms. Goodwitch room. Not only he usually was there because of his poor performance or because he got in trouble with his team and/or team RWBY, she usually was very strict with him. It didn't helped she was incredible sexy and he indeed had a few fantasies of his own with her.

"Mr. Arc, are you aware the Festival of Dragons is in a few days?" She started, and he nodded. "Have you found a willing bride yet?" He shook his head, and she sighed. "Jaune, while I do consider you a good young man and I do hold certain… affection towards you, I do not love you, and I won't marry you."

"I know, Ms. Goodwitch, it's just… I don't want to make it seems I just want to marry because of Tia." He confessed, and she smiled.

"You do have someone in mind."

"I do… but she's out of my league…"

"Jaune, it is her, isn't?" Jaune nodded. "Then you don't have to be afraid. It's painfully obvious you two share feelings for each other, and she is a nice woman that desire to be with you."

"Do you think I should ask her?" Jaune questioned, and Glynda smiled.

"Yes, I do."

"So, do you think she would like this?" He showed a picture in his scroll, and Glynda smiled again.

"I think she's very luck no one took you while she waited."

"T-thanks… It's not that I wouldn't marry you, it's just… she's special…"

"Jaune, I'm not sad you found someone you love. A marriage is sharing, compromising, and supporting each other in the best and worst. It's not something you should do because of need." She spoke softly. "I hope you rely on me when you need council though. You're young, and prone to make mistakes, like, I don't know, entering a school for warriors without the appropriate training."

"Hehe. Thanks, Ms. Goodwitch. You know, I don't get it. You're a remarkable woman yourself, how you never find someone for you?"

"Let's just say letting your duty lead your life and being all 'I have seen things' mood certainly don't make people a good partner for life."

Somewhere else Ozpin and Ironwood sneezed.

…

"And done! Look mommy!" Pyrrha's heart was filled with a warm feeling when the dragonet showed a drawing, that while childish, it was of her, Jaune and Tia holding hands, with beacon at the background and their friends on the windows.

"Amazing, honey. You need to show your dad when…" Tia flew away with her drawing, eager to show it to Jaune. "…come back…"

"And there goes the dragonite." Yang said with a pun, making everyone groan. "You don't appreciate my geniality."

"You know, I wonder how Jaune's mother dealt with eight children." Ruby commented.

"Jaune said something about lots of love and the terrifying stare of death itself." Ren answered.

"Hey, P-money, what if he wants a lot?" Yang's question made Pyrrha blush over the implication…and shiver over the consequences.

…

Tia wondered on Beacon's corridors till she found herself in the main hall in his epic quest to find Jaune and show him the drawing she made. She stared at the drawing and smiled happily, already imagining the praise she would receive. Until she stumbled on someone, ripping the piece of paper in two.

"Watch it, freak!" Cardin growled at her. But instead of answering, she looked at the ripped piece of paper, her eyes filled with tears, she started sobbing, then she cried out loud. "Oh come on!"

"Hey, he made the little girl cry…" Someone commented.

"He's a jerk…" Cardin silenced the people talking with a stare and decided it was better to leave as Tia's crying become louder. That's when he heard the distant sound of a explosion… and Nora entering the hall through the windows.

"Tia! What happened?" She hurried towards her niece, and the crying girl showed the paper. "Who did this?" All fingers immediately pointed at Cardin. "Winchester!"

Carding gulped as Nora's voice and posture completely changed. That wasn't the happy-go-lucky girl anymore. She shifted unfocused eyes towards him and transformed her hammer in grenade launch mode. Of course, there was a huge difference of height between them, but Cardin knew better. In that small package was the promise of endless pain and broken legs, so he did the only thing he could.

He run away as fast as he could, while Nora started firing against him, laughing like a mad woman.

"OFF WITH HIS HEAD!"

Cardin was glad the fact so many people hated his guts (and many could actually beat him) that he developed an intricate knowledge of all the ways around beacon (and also a way to find the best peeping spots) so a series of well done curves made him lost Nora. He was recovering his breath on one of the corridors when someone called him.

"Cardin?" He got startled at first but breathed relieved when he noticed it was just Ruby.

"Oh, hi shrimp." He said and she pouted.

"What are you doing here? This is the way to the women's locker room." Weiss commented.

"That crazy friend of yours is on a rampage! And I did nothing! I swear!"

"Oh really?" Weiss asked in doubt.

"Yeah, that girl that Jauney boy adopted stumble on me and started crying and GAH!" Cardin barely dodged as Crescent Rose almost cut his non-existent hair by neck length.

"Sorry, I just heard 'I made Tia cry' and now I feel like I need to end your existence." Ruby said as she tried to take her scythe from the wall it got stuck in.

"Are you all crazy?" Cardin stated and Weiss stomped forward.

"Run, Winchester. RUN!" She shouted, and Cardin did as ordered.

He jumped a window and into the garden, and run as he heard Nora's psychotic laugh as she called his name. He always knew there were some crazy people around, yet he always thought those good two shoes would never dare to actually stand up against him. And this time he felt he was being unfairly attacked.

He turned a corner and stumbled on Glynda Goodwitch.

"Mr. Winchester, no running around."

"Ms. Goodwitch! Thank heavens! You need to help me! They're all crazy!" He begged.

"Calm down, Mr. Winchester and start making sense!"

"They're trying to kill me! That crazy girl from JNPR and those two flat girls from RWBY!"

"And why they would want that?"

"That dragon girl stumbled on me and started crying…"

All he said after that became white noise to Glynda's ears. All she heard is that her niece, her precious cute niece cried, and that Cardin Winchester was involved. She, as a teacher, had an obligation to be fair and to not allow their students to murder each other. But her niece was crying somewhere. So she did the only thing she could.

"…and now they are trying to kill me… Ms. Goodwitch?" Cardin started to look around to discover the teacher simply vanished.

"WINCHESTER!" He saw Yang approaching, hair on fire and red eyes, and he knew that wasn't because her hair was burning. He gulped and tried to run, but something tangled his feet. He felt on his face and stared as Blake used her weapon to hold him.

"Oh come on!" He yelled as he tried to get untangled. That was when he noticed two figures standing behind him. He turned around to see Coco and Velvet, the bunny girl holding her box.

"Vel, this is the right moment to show your weapon."

The box opened.

Inhuman screams could be heard.

…

"Look daddy!" Tia proudly showed Jaune her drawing. He smiled and noticed the paper seemed wrinkled, and had a weird wrinkle in the middle, but smiled at her just the same, and petted her.

"Hey, if you practice really hard, maybe you can be an artist!" Jaune stated, and the girl hugged him.

"I told you your father would love it." Glynda stated, and Tia nodded happily.

"Thanks for fixing it, auntie Glyn. You're the best!" Glynda couldn't help but blush a little.

"Where's everyone?" Jaune asked Pyrrha.

"Oh, hmmm…" She had no idea how to explain what happened to him, and especially she knew Jaune would have a few words with Cardin himself.

"They are in detention for unauthorized use of force in school grounds." Glynda cut in, and Jaune sighed because he wasn't surprised.

"Great, and I had that idea for tomorrow."

"If you want, Mr. Arc, I'll look at Tia for you tomorrow. Certainly she will make detention more tolerable." Glynda suggested.

"Yay! A day with auntie Glyn!" The dragonet celebrated.

"An idea?" Pyrrha asked and Jaune smile.

"I was wondering if… if you aren't busy… If you want to spend a day together?" The knight asked the champion, and she stuttered and blushed.

"She's saying yes." Tia chimed in with a wide grin.

"YES!" Pyrrha confirmed in a cracked shout. "Yes…"

"Good, good. So, how dinner sounds? We can talk the details during it?"

"I'd love to, Jaune." Pyrrha answered as he offered his arm, which she took gladly, while Glynda and Tia gave them knowing looks.

…

Cardin was wearing a full body cast as he rested in the infirmary. He couldn't believe the staff took so long to save him from the crazed girls, nor that the bunny he used to bully had such terrifying thing inside that box. One thing for sure, he would never get close to her again. In fact, he was really thinking of turning a new leaf if the result of his previous behavior were that amount of pain.

"Hello, Mr. Winchester. How are you?" he just groaned due to his broken jaw as the Faunus doctor entered the med bay. "I am happy to tell you your Aura will fix the damage before the Festival, but I'm holding you here till you fully heal. You took quite a beating." He was actually happy to be somewhere safe. "Oh, I want to show you something! My niece sent me a drawing." He groaned at the mention of niece and drawings. At least he relaxed a little bit.

Until he saw the drawing of the wolf doctor with a certain dragon girl and started panicking.

"My niece is such a sweet child! Oh well, I won't bother you much since you need to rest. But we'll have all the time till the festival to talk." Doc said with a smile. Her poker face an enigma to Cardin as she turned the lights off and slowly closed the door.

He whimpered.
